Haha, join us! Just for fun! :D I don't even know if I'll be able to complete this or not

I have the hardest time reading books published before 1970 and by authors under 25... been sitting at 23/25 for months now on the 2017 version...

Dragons of Autumn Twilight is the oldest book I've read in close to a decade... and that's only 1984

The rest tend tend to happen naturally for the most part...

That's my thought as well. For before 1970 though, I have Crime and Punishment in my shelves so maybe I'll read that this year. As for authors under 25... I really don't know, even Red Rising by Pierce Brown was published when he was 25 and that's the only one I know of

[Timelord Iain]

Some people mentioned Eragon to me... and I found a book written by an 11 year old for NaNoWriMo... but it's a hard category to search for...

damn... 11 years old...? xD I guess I can read that when I really have nothing in my TBR...

[Petrik]

Btw, for bingo #4, "A book you own and haven’t read yet" what does it actually mean?? Does it simply means that I already owned the book, I haven't read it, but once I've read it, I fulfilled the challenge?

I think so yeah haha. Just motivation to get something off your own shelf that you haven't gotten around to yet.

Question.

11. A book with a one-word title

Does "The Bonehunters" count as one word? or does it really have to be exactly one word like "Tigana"?

Okay that MAY have been an exaggeration to use the word just! xD

Hehe. I'm just teasing you though, 'cause you tore through the Realm of the Elderlings saga really fast.
